I got the “Could Not find installable ISAM error” while uploading an Excel file in my application.This seems to be happening at the “connection.Open()” code line.

– Web Application
– .Net 2.0
– Testing using IIS 7.0 on Vista Ultimate
– Office 2007 Enterprise Installed on machine.

Code works successfully when used in a Windows Application

string excelConnectionString =@"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source={0};Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0 Xml;HDR=YES;""";
            using (OleDbConnection connection = new OleDbConnection(excelConnectionString))
            {
                    connection.Open();               
            }
